short_words: "(?:\\b|_)+({word})(?:ed|ing|s)?(?:\\b|\\W|_)+"

It does not make sense adding endings to words.
They are unlikely to make sense, and in any case, the amended word may not be problematic.
This risks adding to the false positives.
Better to match actual words.
Or add the optional ending to the word list itself.

For example:
hers?: gendered
